Dear Parents,
On Friday, December 21, we will be
holding our holiday parties from 2:30 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. for all our
students. Two room parents or their
designees will run the parties for the children. Due to space limitations, we ask that you
refrain from attending these parties.
The PTA will be providing the
students with cupcakes and a Capri Sun during the party. The cupcakes are from * Whole Foods Market in
Naperville. The ingredients are as
follows for the cupcakes: vanilla cupcakes contain eggs, milk, soy and wheat,
sugar, enriched wheat flour, dry egg whites, palm oil, leavening, dextrose,
modified food starch, dry egg yolk, natural flavor, salt, non-fat milk solids,
sorbitan monostearate, soy lecithin, soybean oil, cellulose gum, xanthan gum,
water, and canola oil. The frosting
consists of powdered sugar, palm oil shortening, unsalted butter, vanilla
extract, sea salt and annatto (natural plant based food color).
If your child is unable to have the
treat provided because of allergies, please send the school nurse a note
informing us of this no later than
Thursday, December 13, 2012. She
needs to compile a list of what students cannot have the cupcakes. You are asked to provide your child with a
treat that he/she can have if they have allergies to the cupcakes being
served.
Please do not send in any other
treats for the classrooms because of possible food allergies. Treats brought to school will be sent home.
Finally, alternative activities will
be planned for children whose families choose not to participate in this event
beginning at 2:30 p.m. Please contact
Mr. LeCrone through email in order that appropriate activities can be arranged
no later than Monday, December 17, 2012.
His email address is: brian_lecrone@ipsd.org.
As a reminder, winter break begins
on Friday, December 21, and classes will resume on Monday, January 7,
2013.
We wish you and your family a safe
and restful winter break.
Sincerely,
The
May Watts Staff
*We would like to thank Whole Foods
Market in Naperville for partnering with the PTA. Whole Foods offered a tremendous price break
in order to provide our children with a healthier, more natural and delectable
party treat. – Mrs. Moranchek, Room
